Wanna know how new mom Jessica Alba shed the 25 pounds she gained during her pregnancy and got her body back in shape after giving birth to Honor Marie? Let’s check out her diet and exercise program. 
Diet. Each day, Jessica eats between 1,700 and 2,000 calories, and her workouts help burn 550 calories. Nursing also burns an additional 500 calories a day.
Exercise Program. Jessica works out for an hour, five or six days a week. She was a big fan of the 12-week 3-2-1 Baby Bulge Be Gone workout since it kept her moving with 10-minute sets of cardio, circuit training, and core training. She also enjoys swimming, weight lifting, and using her treadmill at home.

With only 25 pounds gained during her pregnancy, Jessica didn’t have to work out crazy hours or excessively restrict her diet to lose the baby weight.
Now that it’s been 19 months since Jessica gave birth to Honor Marie, she is skinnier. At recent People’s Choice Awards in Los Angeles, she appeared skinner.
Look at her razor-sharp collarbone which is clearly protruding and her bust is slightly deflated! Wonder what her other fast weight loss solutions are beside diet and exercise!

Are you so obese/overweight that you start thinking if you should consider getting rid of excess weight fast with gastric bypass surgery?
Here is an article of Who’s a Candidate for Gastric Bypass Surgery?
(HealthDay News) — Gastric bypass surgery, sometimes recommended for obese people, involves re-routing the path that food takes, including shrinking the size of the stomach. But the procedure has a number of risks, including the possibility of post-surgical infection, blood clots or developing gallstones.
The U.S. National Library of Medicine says the following people may be candidates for gastric bypass surgery:
* People who are obese and are unable to lose enough weight by dieting and exercising.
* People who are committed to a diet and exercise regimen.
* People who are not mentally ill.
* People who do not have drug or alcohol dependency problems.
* People who have a body mass index (BMI) of 40 or higher; generally at least 100 pounds overweight.
* People who have a BMI of 35 or greater, in addition to a serious health problem that could get better with weight loss — for instance, heart disease or type 2 diabetes.

Question: Can fast weight loss be healthy if done right?
As far as I know, fast weight loss is unhealthy because it can slow down your metabolism and make you start burning muscle.
So my question is, can fast weight loss be healthy if while cutting your calories you still separate to 5-6 meals a day to keep your metabolism up; while also going to the gym everyday working different muscle groups every other day or while still doing a strong aerobic workout every day?
